<br />The meeting was called to order at 7:00 pm.
<br />Richard Varnes stated that we are trying to work interdepartmentally to make sure the City is
<br />developing a helpful telecommunications policy for the City and citizens of Boulder and that staff
<br />is here tonight to hear their concerns regarding our draft ordinance.
<br />The draft ordinance will go before the City Council for first reading on February 20th and then to
<br />the Planning Board on February 22nd. The second reading before Council is tentatively set for
<br />March 5th.
<br />What we are trying to accomplish is to increase competition within the City, thereby creating
<br />more choices for Boulder consumers, and giving the advantages of quality and price.
<br />Fred Fox, a consultant with AT&T Wireless (893-9144) stated he has been involved with AT&T
<br />since 1989. They had four providers met to talk about our proposed ordinance as they have
<br />used this process before many times. They want to help make services workable for the City and
<br />County. They also want to continue their approach.
<br />Gary Pultz of Sprint Telecommunications Venture (488-9399) with Jill Jelinek, a planner with
<br />Sprint. Gary says we have chosen a good time to update our regulations. They have not had a
<br />long time to look at the draft ordinance that we gave them. He says it seems to be short, distinct,
<br />and to the point He thinks that there are a few things that need clarification. The regulations are
<br />good, but stifle in creativity to be open to options.
<br />Richard states that he would like to have their follow-up comments in writing.
